Transparency Market Research Reports included a detailed market survey and analysis trends on “Fiber
Channel Over Ethernet Market”. This report also includes more info about basic overview of the industry including definitions, applications and global market industry structure.A
network technology which encapsulates fiber channel frames inside an Ethernet
frame is known as fiber channel over Ethernet. Fiber channel over Ethernet is basically
a data storage protocol which enables communication over Ethernet. FCoE offers
“high-speed Ethernet” infrastructure to move traffic and converge IP protocols
and storage to a single interface. As defined by FC-BB-5T11 group, Fiber
Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is an approach to “I/O consolidation”.
Conventionally, for data storage, TCP/IP networks were used by organization.
Fiber channel offers high-speed data connections between the servers and
computing devices. Fiber channel over Ethernet network comprises of FC ports,
adapters, cables, and FC switches, among other components.

FCoE
provides I/O consolidation over Ethernet and allows Ethernet and fiber channel
to share an integrated, single structure. As a result, Fiber channel over
Ethernet offers benefits including less cables, switch ports, and adapters,
proper server virtualization and storage, and seamless integration with “FC
SANs”. This also helps in minimizing network complexities in the data
center.
One
of the major applications of FCoE is Storage Area Networks (SANs), as it
results in use of fewer cables. FCoE protocols are used by large organizations
for high density storage. FCoE protocol replaces the FC1 and FC0 layers of the
fiber channel with Ethernet. Fiber channel over Ethernet (FCoE) transports the
stored data using fiber channel protocol as compared to TCP/IP stack. This is
achieved by mapping of fiber channel over “IEEE 802.3”, creating full duplex
networks. Thus, Fiber channel over Ethernet allows data centers to have
increased optimization in virtualization (server) combined with reduction in
cooling requirements, and lesser number of interface cards and cables.
Fiber
channel over Ethernet, infrastructure broadly comprises of three components,
namely FCoE links, switches, and CNA (Converged Network Adapter). The CNA
provides virtual functionalities of both FC HBA (Host Bus Adapters) and
Ethernet NIC (Network Interface Cards). The Ethernet infrastructure used by
FCoE infrastructure is same as compared to the TCP/IP network. FCoE switches act
as an intermediary between SAN network and adapters which connect adapters to
IP network (using IP ports) combined with SAN network (using FC ports).
Currently, companies use both fiber channel (FC) for storage area network (SAN)
and Ethernet for TCP/IP networks for specific purposes. Ethernet networks are
deployed when small amount of information is transferred by the user over both
global and local distances.
Rising
demand from users for increased bandwidth, and flexibility to access same
network across server are some of the key factors contributing towards the
growth of FCoE market. However, delayed adoption of FCoE technology is
hindering the market growth. The impact of which is marginalized by rapid
adoption of FCoE infrastructure in cloud computing, which is creating
foundation for new opportunities. The FCoE (Fiber Channel over Ethernet) market
is segmented on the basis of type. The classification includes FCoE adapters,
and FCoE switches. Prominent players of the market include Cisco Systems Inc.,
Qlogic Corp., Brocade Communication Systems Inc., Emulex Corp., Intel Corp.,
LSI Corp., and Arista Networks Inc., among others. These players are focused on
developing solutions which can meet varying requirements for different sectors.
For instance, recently CISCO enhanced its customer base for FCoE solutions by
including Financial and Technology solution companies, and Aerospace sector.
